DEPRIVED OF THE DRUG.

The Profound Depression of a Morphia
Habitne-A Terrible struggIe-Health.
Watch a morphia habitue deprived of the
drug. The first slight uneasiness and sense
of discomfort gradually passes into extreme
restlessness, accompanied by the most pro-
found depression; the stomach becomes so
irritable that nothing can be retained, and
there is a nausea and distressing sensation of
emptiness and sinking. The whole nervous
system, which has been working so long
under deadening weight, abuses its liberty
and runs absolute riot; breath of air which
would bring relief to an ordinary sufferer is
painful to him; so sensitive is the skin that a
touch distresses, and even the eye and ear are
incapable of tolerating the most ordinary
stimulation.
To these troubles are added sleeplessness
the patient cannot get a moments rest; OF, if
he should close his eyes in sleep, horrible
dreams and an indefinable terror take posses
sion of him, end make him dread that con.
dition which others look to for consolation
and relief. Incapacity to take food, pro.
longed sleeplessness, constant sneezing yawn-
ing and vomiting painful acuteness of all bis
senses and other troubles sink the sufferer
into a condition Of prostration and despair,
only to be relieved by morphia.
Who then can wonder if the wretch yields
again to the drug which has SO long enslaved

and q feeling Of incapacity to endure his ag.
onies- be asks reproachfully whether it is
true that science has discovered no means Of
relief, no substitute for morphia, which may
be given him until the storm be past. No

do more than alleviate these sufferings, and

This is the way the Quincy Netcs sails
into the idea of keeping quiet the preva-
lence of contagious diseases by the news
papers. 1t may be interesting reading to
people in this vicinity:
The result of carelessness, ignorance
and the fool idea that newspapers should
keep this thing quiet is to be seen in the
mounds in the cemeteries, where lie vic
tins of scarlet fever. There is no ques
tioning that the recent outbreak of the
epidemic could have been avoided. ant
all the newspapers are more or less to
blame in Withholding facts that proved a
great lack of precaution to thoroughly
stamp out the disease. The epidemic is
no frightful thing; the number of cases
is comparatively small-but it is simply
devilish to advocate a suppression OF
facts, when their presentation is so nee
essaTy as now, on the plea that people OF
the outside may hear of it. 1t would bt
good thing if people in Quincy ant
near US could be convinced that ou
newspapers are honest.
The ARGUS has kept published rec
ord of the existence and location of con
tagious disease in Rock Island for some
time
